The 1967 Mr. Olympia contest was an IFBB professional bodybuilding competition held in September 1967 at the 

Brooklyn Academy of Music in Brooklyn, New York. It was the 3rd Mr. Olympia competition held.

Sergio Oliva wins the title, becoming the second Mr. Olympia.


The 1968 Mr. Olympia contest was an IFBB professional bodybuilding competition held in September 1968 at the 

Brooklyn Academy of Music in Brooklyn, New York. It was the 4th Mr. Olympia competition held.

Sergio Oliva defended his title unopposed. Other contestants were expected to compete, but all withdrew. 

Harold Poole received a job promotion in 1968 and it adversely affected his ability to train for the competition. 

Dave Draper found himself in the Hollywood spotlight, and movie making and film promotion disrupted his ability 

to prepare for the contest. Chuck Sipes was in attendance that evening. He won the Mr. World the same day, and 

had also taken time to perform strongman stunts. But, on the advice of Joe Weider, Chuck withdrew from the competition.


The 1969 Mr. Olympia contest was an IFBB professional bodybuilding competition held in September 13, 1969 at the 

Brooklyn Academy of Music in Brooklyn, New York. It was the 5th Mr. Olympia competition held.


Sergio Oliva won his third consecutive title.

Arnold Schwarzenegger was defeated for the only time on a Mr. Olympia stage.

It was the first of four times Oliva and Schwarzenegger faced each other in a bodybuilding contest and the only one Oliva won.

The contest concluded with what is considered the first pose-down.
